Remote Access You can access your answering system from any touch-tone phone by entering your 3-digit security code (the default security code is 123, but you can change it.) Be aware that remote functions do not work with rotary or push-button, pulse-dialing phones. You can cut out the wallet-size remote card located at the end of this instruction book so you will have the touch-tone commands when you're picking up messages from another location. To Access Your Answering System 1. Call your telephone number. 2. After you hear the beep that follows the greeting, enter your 3-digit security code. To bypass the greeting, you can enter your 3-digit security code any time while the greeting is playing. 3. The answering system beeps to confirm you have accessed the remote functions and begins playing the remote functions menu. 4. Select the function you want to use and press that number on the phone's keypad you are using. 5. To end the call, hang up or press the "6" button while the menu is playing. NOTE: The answering system answers on the 10th ring if the answering system is turned off or the memory is full. To access the answering system, enter the 3-digit security code after the beeps. If memory is full, playback your messages and erase some of them to restore memory. If the answering system is off, press 2 to turn it on. If you want to end a call while a message is playing, just press and release the "6" button twice on the phone you are using. NOTE: After the answering system plays the remote menu, it will wait 10 seconds for a command. If a command is not entered, the unit disconnects. The unit only allows two attempts at accessing the security code. If the second attempt is incorrect, the unit will end the call. 18
